Liverpool FC defender Alberto Moreno in action during the Premier League Asia Trophy

Ironically, and quite comically, Alberto Moreno looks like he will feature in Liverpool's opener at Watford, but for the Reds. The Spaniard looked destined to be leaving Anfield during the summer, but what a huge difference a week makes.

The left-back was firmly second choice to James Milner last season, to the extent, he made just 12 appearances in the League. With Liverpool securing the signature of Andrew Robertson, he seemed resigned to be the third choice left back if he elected to stay.

With Klopp planning to use James Milner as a midfielder this season, Moreno seems suddenly the first choice with Robertson looking to settle into the Liverpool setup. It is easy to forget how highly rated the former Sevilla defender was when he joined the Reds.

If he manages to keep his form and tie down a place in the lineup, he would provide attacking guile from the left flank, and will always be an option for Sadio Mane. One thing is for sure, he has forced Klopp's hand and made him consider his transfer plans.
